Movember heads to Party Conferences 2026
Movember is heading to seven Party Conferences across the UK this Autumn to put men's health on the agenda.
This autumn, Movember is heading to seven Party Conferences across the UK – our biggest conference season yet.
Party Conferences give us a vital opportunity to meet policymakers, Parliamentarians and partners, hear how men's health is showing up across the political spectrum, and make sure the experiences of men are part of the conversation.
And this year, there's a big question on our minds: what happens next?
With England's first Men's Health Strategy now in place, we'll be talking about how we turn national ambition into action in communities across the country – alongside our work on mental health, prostate and testicular cancers, fatherhood, healthy masculinity and online harms.
From policymakers to communities, Movember is bringing men's health into the conversation this conference season.
Here's where you can find us.
Reform UK Conference
We're kicking things off at Reform UK Conference, joining the Centre for Social Justice to talk about the growing number of young men who are out of education, employment and training – and what can help get lads back into work.

- Location: Endeavour Theatre, NEC

We're teaming up with the Centre for Policy Research on Men and Boys and HOPE not hate to ask a simple but important question: what does it mean to be a man today?

We'll also be sharing findings from our new Real Face of Men's Health: Scotland report – shining a light on the health challenges facing men across Scotland and where action is needed.
And we'll be asking a rather direct question about what happens next…
